Phylogenetic Analysis of Allorhizobium vitis Strains in the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, Canada

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Four clades containing Okanagan Valley Allorhizobium vitis strains formed following phylogenetic analysis, displaying both genetic similarity and dissimilarity with similar grapevine host origins. ABSTRACT Grapevine crown gall (GCG), characterised by the formation of galls and root necrosis, is an economically devastating disease that affects ...

Antivirulence effects of cell-free culture supernatant of endophytic bacteria against grapevine crown gall agent, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, and induction of defense responses in plantlets via intact bacterial cells

BMC Plant Biology
Background Crown gall disease caused by Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a very destructive affliction that affects grapevines. Endophytic bacteria have been discovered to control plant diseases via the use of several mechanisms.

Isolation and Characterization of Avirulent and Virulent Strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens from Rose Crown Gall in Selected Regions of South Korea

Plants, 2019
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a plant pathogen that causes crown gall disease in various hosts across kingdoms. In the present study, five regions (Wonju, Jincheon, Taean, Suncheon, and Kimhae) of South Korea were chosen to isolate A.

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, 18 February 2026.
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Pseudomonas aurantiaca ST-TJ4 against crown gall caused by Agrobacterium tumefaciens by inducing systemic resistance in cherry blossom

Biological Control
Cherry blossom crown gall has caused serious damage to plant growth, and is highly contagious and extremely difficult to control. The antagonism of pathogens by rhizosphere bacteria has attracted widespread attention.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Geranium sylvaticum*

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.
Geranium sylvaticum is a perennial forb of upland grasslands, woodlands and riverbanks in northern Britain, with scattered native occurrences also in Wales, central England and Northern Ireland. It has an extensive native range in Europe and Asia. The species is gynodioecious, with individual plants typically female or hermaphrodite.

Floral stage optimization and immune evasion enhance Agrobacterium‐mediated genome editing in Arabidopsis

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 2125-2139, February 2026.
Summary Agrobacterium‐mediated transformation by floral inoculation (AMT‐FI) enables genetic engineering without tissue culture. It is widely used in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, yet its efficiency and broader applicability remain limited. Here, we used a dual‐reporter system (RUBY and hygromycin resistance) to identify key floral stages and ...

Insects Associated With Butternut and Butternut Canker in Minnesota and Wisconsin [PDF]

, 2018
Butternut, Juglans cinerea, is being killed throughout its native range in North America by the fungus Sirococcus clavigignenti-juglandacearum. In addition to rain splashed spores, it is thought that the fungus may have spread over long distances to ...

Synthesizing current knowledge on the ecology, phenology, and cultivation of Vaccinium membranaceum

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 116-133, January 2026.
More than 100 edible native berries grow across Canada's vast territory and are used by over 600 Indigenous Peoples of Canada as a main component of their diet. This research provides critical insights into the ecology, phenology, and cultivation of black huckleberry (Vaccinium membranaceum), a species of significant ecological and cultural importance ...

Evaluation of Transgenic ‘Chardonnay' ( Vitis vinifera ) Containing Magainin Genes for Resistance to Crown Gall and Powdery Mildew [PDF]

, 2018
Magainins, short peptides with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity in vitro, were assayed for their ability to confer resistance to pathogens in transgenic grapevines. Embryogenic cell suspensions of ‘Chardonnay' (Vitis vinifera L.) were co-transformed
